Service & vibes were excellent. Food was overall pretty good, but could use some more refining. For example, the shrimp taco was very bland, the tetala could have used more sweet potato, & the beef tongue had wayy too much mayo. However, the corn madeleines & queso fresco were delightful, & we loved the crudo. The portions were tiny, we had the 9 course menu for 2 & it felt like we split a set course for one. We had to eat elsewhere after, despite paying 280$ already.

Visiting Alma was one of my top dining experiences ever. A well curated tasting menu, wonderful drink pairings both alcoholic & non alcoholic. The service was incredible, attentive & knowledgeable staff served the dishes & explained each one. We sat at the counter & had a great view of the kitchen & food prep. A very small & intimate dining experience makes sure you get a reservation in advance. We'd been interested in eating here in a previous visit & couldn't get a reservation. However it is more than worth the wait & the hype!

Had a wonderful experience here & was very happy I got to experience this restaurant. I tried a few years ago when I was in Montreal & I wasn't able to get a reservation. It was worth the wait the food was fantastic, a very creative fused menu with excellent service. The ambiance was also great. Low light with a lot of candles. It's a very small restaurant so it feels very private. Hats off to the chef for putting together a fantastic tasting menu.

Excessivement dispendieux (très) & service incroyablement long service. Pas de prix pour les vins suggérés en pairage & oh surprise. Exorbitant. Certains plats décevants d'autres bons. Certains trop peu. Les churros n'étaient pas cuits. C'était notre troisième fois mais la dernière fois. Ce restaurant de quartier semble avoir perdu ses repères. Nous préférons Tinc-set, le petit frère sans prétention..

Très décevant pour le prix de l'addition Service très limite, des personnes qui prennent plus au sérieux leurs tâches que d'autres .. la serveuse à "abandonné" l'addition sur la table ... On est loin d'un menu dégustation, pas la bonne destination pour un vraie repas gastronomique comme prétendu.
